Sleeping on the shore of the Gosausee
The Gasthof Gosausee is where the Gosau valley road ends, on the shore of the Vorderer Gosausee, the lake from which you see the Dachstein glacier reflected in the water. Sleeping here means having the lake first thing and at dusk, when the people who come up for the day have not yet arrived or have already left, and setting off on foot from the door on the Gosausee loop, without taking the car.
It is a small house: the website itself says it has few rooms. Downstairs is the restaurant, with about 90 seats in two rooms and a south-facing terrace looking onto the lake. It is closed now: it opens again on 30 January 2027.
